The Diplomat Hotel

The hotel, rooms and the beach are very clean. Food is really good. Sourdough breads are amazing.

Room furniture

Turunc is a nice tiny village near Marmaris. The sea is clean and clear, so I decided to have a vacation there with my child. Overall, hotel is one of the best in its area: - pool (my child adores), however on there website it's said that the pool is out of order. - good restaurant on the 0-floor, it's important because the hotel gives only breakfast included. - good breakfasts: greens, eggs, good high quality cheese, fresh bread, watermelon - their own beach with good facilities: parasols, beds, shower. - rooms with kettle (so you can make tea), fridge, AC. Rooms are made in Turkish style, some people ij comments said its old, but on my opinion it's authentic and I have never seen so beautifully painted doors, as I understand there is an artis: many interesting pictures on walls. - staff - this is another treasury of this hotel. As they are all very diplomatic!, polite and tolerant. Some of them are very nervous of bad knowledge of English, but I think they shouldn't be, people will always understand each other - we had a sea side view with a balcony and comfy beds (pillows are soso, we slept w/o them). But I think from any room there will be a nice view, hotel is a large one (comparing to others near), built in a right way. Has its own territory for parking and yard for chilling out.

- Would like to have a little information printed out in my room: so I would learn how I can order food strictly to my room from restaurant, how I can get water (we bought it by ourselves), how I can order fried eggs on the breakfast (and that they are included), how much will cost sofas on the beach, or sea board. Do I have a discount if I have lunch in their restaurant..So these details would be useful for me once I come for the 1st time there. - Turunch is a small town, be sure that it would be interesting for you and your child to stay there. If I was alone with no child I would definitely lived more there but I was with my little daughter we lived for a week. But this comment is not for Diplomat.

Restoran çok kötü. Çeşit az, fiyatlar köy ortamına göre yüksek Marmaristen aşağı kalır yanı yok. Ulaşımı da kötü. Tek şerit virajlı yol dağı aşırtıp gidiliyor falan. Personel ilgili, kahvaltı yeterli. Deniz taşlı hemen derinleşen klasik Akdeniz. Gerek yok bir daha gitmeyiz.

Location is perfect. Hotel is clean, the restaurant is nice. Sea is beautiful. Samet (at the reception) was friendly and helpful

Cleaning the apart rooms every four days is a bit annoying (also, it took some time to get a few more toilet papers and soap). One of the personnel at the beach told us (in the middle of our 6-day stay) that we were not allowed to consume beverages at the beach, and that we have to order from the hotel's restaurant. We stopped consuming our own beverages at the beach, not to disturb ourselves mainly, arguing with the personnel. We saw that some other guests kept drinking what they bring themselves in the meantime. When a guest reserves a room at the hotel, they have access to the beach (sun loungers etc) by definition. What we drink is nobody's business (use of the hotel facilities at the beach is one thing, forbidding people to be at the beach or drink what they want is another --not even legal). After having spent money at the restaurant (which is really nice actually with good food) and being warned, we decided not to spend money at the restaurant any longer. Not that it changed the overall opinion (still enjoyed our stay at the hotel), this was something we wish did not happen.
